Question 1

Sherman's approach to warfare was revolutionary and controversial. I'm curious what personal or strategic factors influenced this mindset.

Question 2

His thoughts on how history would view him added a human dimension to his military achievements. Did this make others see him differently?

Question 3

His upbringing and experiences seem to have played a big role, but I'm wondering which moments were most formative in creating the general we read about.

Question 4

Understanding his reasons for documenting these experiences now might reveal how he wanted to be remembered or what he felt was most important to share.
